StarTek CEO Larry Jones ACG Conference Panelist
CEO Retrospective: What Tested Your Mettle During the Recession
DENVER, Mar 16, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- StarTek's (NYSE: SRT) President and CEO, Larry Jones, will be a part of a panel discussion at the 8th Annual Rocky Mountain Corporate Growth Conference, being held March 17 and 18, 2010 at The Inverness Hotel & Conference Center in Denver. The session on Thursday, March 18 from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm is entitled CEO Retrospective: What Tested Your Mettle During the Recession and is an up-close-and-personal examination of how some CEOs managed their companies through the longest and most turbulent economic downturn since the Great Depression.

The other panel participants include Zach Neumeyer, Chairman and Founder of Sage Hospitality and Jeff Clark, CEO of JD Clark & Co and will be moderated by Martin Dubin, consultant, RHR International. The theme for the conference is Managing Beyond the Recovery -- New Realities, New Rules, New Values and reflects the anticipated changes for the global economy. Beyond the recovery, economists and business leaders alike envision a lower growth U.S. economy, higher structural unemployment, labor shortages, a weaker dollar, rising public spending, higher taxes, a more skeptical and less trusting investor community, and a higher rate of inflation than what existed during the several decades leading up to the Great Recession

"The recent recession has placed new challenges on corporate leaders," said Jones. "At StarTek, which was emerging from a turnaround in 2009, we were able to take advantage of the changing demands of our industry by accelerating our offshore expansion and strengthening our middle management team. Today, we are a stronger StarTek and we are well positioned for future growth and acquisitions."
